Thoughts on these Cole Haans? Or am I better off with Stan Smiths or low top leather Converse?

Looking for a new white minimalist sneaker to replace my old white Stan Smiths. Wondering if I should go for another pair of all white Smiths or try something different like these Cole Haans on sale on Amazon, or some all white leather Converse. For reference I'm a 5'6 male, going for the Basic Bastard look to wear with either jeans in the winter or shorts in the summer. https://www.amazon.com/Cole-Haan-Grand-Crosscourt-Leather/dp/B07B27RHDR/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=WxUYy&content-id=amzn1.sym.d0ebfbb2-6761-494f-8e2f-95743b37c35c%3Aamzn1.symc.50e00d6c-ec8b-42ef-bb15-298531ab4497&pf_rd_p=d0ebfbb2-6761-494f-8e2f-95743b37c35c&pf_rd_r=KGTXVMF6KTKQKAB30Z6X&pd_rd_wg=hgd2s&pd_rd_r=88caf994-45ba-48da-986c-7f44f2e30351&ref_=pd_gw_ci_mcx_mr_hp_atf_m&th=1&psc=1 https://www.converse.com/shop/p/chuck-taylor-all-star-leather-unisex-low-top-shoe/136823C_095.html?pid=135253MP&dwvar_135253MP_size=095&dwvar_135253MP_color=mono%20white&dwvar_135253MP_width=standard&styleNo=136823C&pdp=true&buyrec=false#review-teaser

If I could only have one minimalist sneaker below $100 which of these three should I go for?

I need to replace my last pair of white sneakers, trying to decide on a replacement all white minimal pair, either these All Star Chuck Taylors low top in leather (https://www.converse.com/shop/p/chuck-taylor-all-star-leather-unisex-low-top-shoe/136823C_095.html?pid=135253MP&dwvar_135253MP_size=095&dwvar_135253MP_color=mono%20white&dwvar_135253MP_width=standard&styleNo=136823C&pdp=true&buyrec=false#review-teaser), these all white Vans (https://www.kohls.com/product/prd-4265288/vans-seldan-mens-leather-shoes.jsp?skuid=60998744&CID=shopping30&utm_campaign=MENS%20SPORT%20SHOES&utm_medium=CSE&utm_source=google&utm_product=60998744&utm_campaignid=20497470954&CID=shopping30&utm_campaign=SSC&utm_medium=CSE&utm_source=google&utm_campaignid=20497470954&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwkuqvBhAQEiwA65XxQNCRNcvejqyLRpW5jTK4QMLWkjL3UF8sRl5zX9Ursbqj96lupzYU2RoCjWAQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds), or just going with the classic all white Stan Smiths. For reference, my closet consists of two button-up shirts (one white, one light blue), multiple tees in white, light grey, and charcoal, jeans one in navy denim one in light blue, and one black bomber jacket. Somewhere between preppy and casual I think. I'm 5'6 and I've tried all three in store already, but I need to know fast cause I need them for an event coming up. Thanks in advance!

Is wearing a dark blue bomber jacket and dark blue denim jeans too much blue?

I was looking to order this dark blue bomber jacket from H and M , https://www2.hm.com/en_us/productpage.0976641028.html?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAtt2tBhBDEiwALZuhAPL8wZy5yFQGt6Y8YKdokR-1K0H6jDpetb_pROjyoRWlBNwcsmET6xoCjsUQAvD_BwE I have their olive jacket and its really nice. I was hoping to get a second in navy, but I have a minimalist capsule wardrobe and only two pairs of jeans, these from HandM https://www2.hm.com/en_us/productpage.1024256006.html?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAtt2tBhBDEiwALZuhALCdkicp2Rzt6FmGZwilOcLZTNLOIPlx1yXSmsqs-mb_ZJbCwCPfABoC_T8QAvD_BwE in dark blue and light denim blue. Is this too much blue, even if I wear a white or light grey shirt underneath?
